Folklore heritage represents a precious source of inspiration for fostering imagination, creativity, and social skills in children at an early and preschool age. Through folk games, songs, and dances, children become familiar with their own cultural identity, gain a sense of belonging to a community, and develop an awareness of diversity among people. When working with children in early and preschool age, it is important to implement diverse folklore activities that are adapted to their age and individual developmental needs. Through play, dance, and singing, children actively engage in exploring and discovering folk heritage, stimulating their creativity, imagination, and emotional development. Folklore represents a valuable resource in working with young children. By participating in folklore, children connect with their own culture, develop motor, language, and social skills, and gain respect and understanding for other cultures. Integrating folk heritage into working with children can provide a rich and engaging experience that fosters holistic child development. In this process, educators play a crucial role. They should provide support and guidance, encouraging children to actively participate in folk activities, explore, and create. Educators need to recognize the importance of folk heritage and its role in children's development, ensuring that children experience and appreciate the richness of cultural traditions.
